‘I want to be wafer-thin. So thin that, at some point, I practically disappear. Isn’t that the point? The literal erasure of women?’
A brand new satire by Racheal Ofori (Portrait, So Many Reasons, FLIP!) that explores the ugly cost of beauty – from scalp-burning perms to injectables, from skinny tea to fat jabs.

Yvonne is losing her mind.

She walks into Boots looking for shampoo and has a breakdown, paralysed by the oppressive abundance of bright plastic bottles.

Mina always kept a trim figure.

Her mother’s ever-present scales in their family used to do the trick. But since her mother’s death, she’s finding it harder to keep the weight off. So she’s ordered some fat jabs online.

Written and performed by Racheal Ofori, this is a rehearsed reading of the work in progress.

Part of the Past, Present, Future Weekender, a bold, two-day takeover of performance, ideas and action, created by young people, for young people and the curious.
